This is a log of changes to this site's assumptions, not a claim about when a platform changed its pricing. The dates below are record or verification dates. No unconfirmed platform effective dates are implied.
— Official verification of remaining schedules
- PayPal DE: Corrected the German domestic standard commercial rate from 2.49% + EUR 0.35 (the Goods & Services send/receive rate) to 2.99% + EUR 0.39 (PayPal Checkout / all other commercial transactions), per the official DE fee page last updated 7 September 2026.
- eBay.de: Business sellers: the fixed fee per order is EUR 0.35 for orders up to EUR 10.00 and EUR 0.45 above, per the official eBay.de business fee page. Verified the illustrative 12% up to EUR 990 / 3% above category and free private domestic sales. eBay states business fees exclude VAT; VAT on fees is still not modeled.
- メルカリ JP: Verified Mercari shipping presets against official help pages; corrected Yu-Pack 60 size from JPY 770 to JPY 750. Special boxes (Takkyubin Compact JPY 70, Yu-Packet Plus JPY 65) are extra.
- Verified without value changes: Etsy US (6.5% + 3% + USD 0.25, USD 0.20 listing), Etsy Germany (4% + EUR 0.30 processing; EUR listing fee remains a conversion of the USD 0.20 fee), Depop US (no selling fee; 3.3% + USD 0.45 processing), Mercari US (10% selling fee, no processing fee), Poshmark US (USD 2.95 under USD 15, 20% from USD 15), PayPal France (2.90% + EUR 0.35).
— Consistent tax scope in comparisons
- Made the modeled tax scope explicit for every schedule. Scenarios without a tax input now also exclude tax in comparison rows, matching their standalone calculators. This is a modeling correction, not a platform fee change or new rate verification.
— Initial sourced fee snapshot and corrections
- Stripe US: Recorded domestic card pricing and the international-card surcharge from the supplied official verification.
- PayPal US: Separated Checkout, standard card payments and Goods & Services send/receive; recorded the international surcharge and currency-specific fixed fees. The supplied official page was last updated October 1, 2026.
- eBay US: Replaced the prior illustrative single-rate model with the verified two-tier schedule and small-order rule.
- Mercari US: Replaced the old illustrative combination of selling and processing fees with a seller-fee-only estimate. This correction had not been verified against the official page when recorded.
- Added regional assumptions for Japan, Germany, France and Etsy in EUR. These were unverified when recorded, as were Etsy US, Depop and Poshmark.
